Giant dominoes

Dominoes can be played almost anywhere, whether they are made of wood or plastic. In the past, dominoes were made of bone or even ivory. So there are many different kinds of dominoes with countless variations, some of which are very amusing. A domino is made up of simple blocks that can be combined and assembled in many ways from very simple to very complex. It is a game that requires and demands a lot of skill and strategy. There are Chinese, English and European dominoes.... Archaeologists have reportedly found dominoes in ancient Egypt and among the Arabs, but the origin of the domino is attributed to China around the 12th century. Dominoes first appeared in Europe in Italy in the 18th century and from that time onwards they spread throughout Europe. Dominoes became the most played game in living rooms, pubs and families, becoming one of the most popular games. Dominoes are played by 2 or 4 people with 28 blocks. Each block is divided in two on the top side and has numbers (but not always), sometimes the same, but often different, but always unique. The principle of the game is to take turns following a pattern with your blocks, block by block, trying to match the identical face of your block to the identical face of the competitor's block. When a player cannot place a domino, he picks a piece and passes his turn. The winner is the one who has placed all his dominoes. This giant domino is a classic game gift, an original gift idea for a birthday or an unusual gift for the holidays.

wooden empty wine box

Wooden empty wine box

A beautiful wine box with a remarkable handle and a unique closure, to be given as a gift with a good bottle of wine of your choice. Unfortunately, we don't sell wine. However, there are plenty of places to buy a bottle of wine. Ideally, of course, the wine you choose should come from a great vineyard, so as not to devalue the container by harbouring a bottle of plonk, a bad wine. A wine box that stands out from the crowd, with a beautiful, original closure and an equally special handle that looks as if it came from the last century. This wine box is a long-lasting product that you can also give as a gift to someone else or keep for yourself, because it's a beautiful and useful object. Containers and gift wrapping are often made of paper or cardboard, are often single-use and are not always inexpensive. Packaging that in most cases is thrown in the bin to be recycled in the best of cases. On the other hand, the wine box you received with a good bottle of vintage wine, or an original or rare wine, can be given as a birthday or anniversary present. A lovely gift to give to someone you really appreciate, such as a friend or why not your boss at an annual event. The choice of wine is vast: French wine from Bordeaux, Burgundy or elsewhere, wine from Italy, South Africa, Chile, etc. Each vineyard can offer remarkable, admirable vintages. These bottles of wine deserve a prestigious case, a dazzling box like this incomparable and very distinguished wine case.

Ludo pirate island

Do you know the board games: Pachisi (Indian), Patolli (Mesoamerican), Ludo and the little horses? You win! They have an apron (playing surface) in the shape of a cross. However, all these games have a filiation that goes back very far in the history of civilisations, although they are called differently. Some have similar rules like the Korean game: "Yunnori", of Chinese origin, but the game board is different. And these board games were eventually called Ludo in Great Britain and "petits chevaux" in France. They were introduced in the United States and France around 1936. However, the rules and the number of squares where the little horses move to pass and go around may not be the same depending on the size of the game and the dressing of the small horse games or Ludo. However, even if the rules of the small horses or even if the boards are different, the fun of the game is still there. Nowadays, the variations of Ludo pawns are very important; pirates, small animal, Lego etc. When I was little, I used to go to my grandparents' house very often and the game of little horses was one of the first board games I played with my grandfather. The Ludo "Islands of the pirates" is a good birthday present for the little ones who often like pirate stories and cartoons.

Tetris wooden puzzle

Tetris is without doubt the most addictive video game in the world. Almost everyone knows how to play Tetris, but how many people know its origin? The incredible history of Tetris is due to a Soviet engineer. This engineer created the game Tetris without knowing it and without being paid (the communist regime obliges.) for two eons (10 years) at the time of Perestroïka and at the time of the explosion of the sector of video games. Tetris is one of the first addictive games, a game that you can play for hours without eating while waiting to get a bar of 4 elements to see one or more lines disappear and then continue to try to erase the maximum number of lines and sometimes get the maximum number of points. There are also competitions, world championships of Tetris. The very official biography of Tetris, published by Pix’n Love, tells the story of this incredible series that takes us through the Cold War from communism to winning capitalism. We meet Soviet Russian engineers, rogue agents, Soviet bureaucrats, video game mavericks and psychologists turned psychopaths to get back to the basics of human inclinations for video games and gaming in general. The wooden game Tetris is a spatial orientation game for learning to combine shapes. This educational game is part of the gifts ideas games and toys, original gifts wooden games, original gifts children, unusual birthday gifts.

White mug with artwork




History of the cup We know the story of the pottery kiln from an ancient Chinese poem, the "Shuihuzhuan" (poem about the origin of objects). It reads as follows... There was once a man named Zhou Bo, who had a son named Lu Buwei, who had a daughter named Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei was the first person to make porcelain ware, which she then presented to her father, who liked it so much that he gave her this land, where she built a kiln and started making pots for sale, with her father's blessing (he needed the money, after all!). She sold them very well and soon became rich; however, she wanted to give something back to her parents for their generosity, so she asked her father if he would accept these two cups, which she said were the best ever made. One day Lu Buwei decided to build a kiln so that his sister, Jiang Wei, could make pots. He went into the forest to collect clay and saw beautiful pieces of glazed porcelain lying in the ground among the roots of the trees! He took them home, and the next morning he called his son, Lu Buwei, and told him to take these pieces of porcelain to make pots, and then took him to see the kiln where they had been collected.

Ludo farm animals

To play Ludo (small horses or dada in France, Belgium), you need to be four and have a dice and 4 counters, farm animals or small horses whose colour corresponds to the starting box. The colour is drawn at random before starting the game which runs in the same direction as the clockwise direction. To start the race in this little gift game, the participants must roll a 6, which then allows them to get out and stand right in front of the box. The number 6 allows them to play again. To progress on this game, gift ideas for children, participants must roll a dice and move their mount forward by the same amount. If you roll a 5, for example, and you arrive exactly on a square where there is already an opponent's pawn, this pawn will have to go back to its stable and start the game again and you will take its place on the board. The winner is the one who arrives first at the centre of this ideal board game gift and ideal birthday present, while crossing the ladder opposite his starting "box" at the end of a compulsory turn of the board. To climb up, the number indicated on the ladder must be achieved: One on the one, two on the two, etc. Obtaining a different number does not allow you to move your horse or, in this case, your farm animal forward. Who will win the race? The donkey, the sheep, the mouse or the cow? A nice gift for children who love animals.

Clock with artwork

Clock with artwork

13th century. Mechanical clocks began to develop. More than thirty testimonies are quoted from all over Europe at the end of the 13th century. In these texts we find the purchase of iron and weights and the acquisition of expensive clocks in monasteries, cathedrals and princely residences. These prices were often considerable: six marks for the clock of the monastery of Colmar in 1278, thirty pounds for that of Canterbury in 1292, fifty pounds for a simple repair or transformation of the clock of the cathedral of Sens in 1319. Gradually, the mechanical clock, whose movement is permanently maintained by a motorised weight, replaced the boring water clock that had to be constantly cleaned and filled or emptied. It seems that these early clocks - like the water clocks - were first intended to strike a particular time (e.g. alarm clock) and a little later to strike different times of the day; these clocks were "blind": they had no dial! The striking mechanism was operated by one or more pins on a wheel of the mechanism. This transfer of technology from hydraulic to mechanical power enabled the original purpose of the clock to be retained: the striking of a precise hour; this invention has therefore remained practically anonymous. It was not until a little later, in 1336, that an important innovation changed the history of clock-making: striking clocks. A clock with a reproduction of the top 10 works of art are unusual artwork ideas,cute artwork gift ideas , perfect to buy a artwork gifts and unusual to personalise artwork gifts, special artwork gift ideas, to personalise artwork gifts for…best artwork gifts for… unique artwork gift for…

Clock with label to...




History of the clock from its origins to the 16th century, The origins No mechanical clocks seem to exist before the fourteenth century, but several mentions in manuscript sources reveal some of the early history of the clock. The Latin word horologium, horologia, derived from the Greek [ὡρα, time and λέγειν, to say], has been used since Roman antiquity to refer to all time-indicating devices, but the use of this word for all time-measuring instruments hides from us the true nature of their mechanisms. The hydraulic clock A hydraulic clock is an ancient type of clock, which tells the time by allowing a liquid in a container to flow through a small hole. From the beginning, in ancient times, the liquid used was water, hence the name water clock. Later, mercury clocks could be found, especially in Arabic and Chinese writings, but this seems to be anecdotal. The first hydraulic clocks evolved from the simple clepsydra (see the France 2 television game show), to which a more or less sophisticated time indication was added (essentially a graduated scale); over the centuries, we have encountered different types of hydraulic clocks, monumental or not, with sophistications to animate skits, for example, or to strike a precise time.
